From 1983 to 2023, the Masonic Charity Foundation of Oklahoma matched over $37 million for local projects across the state. Sometimes, we forget just how important Masonic Charity is.
Of all charities designed to help individuals, Masonic Charity…
• is the oldest still-existing private philanthropy in Oklahoma.
• is the largest private philanthropy in Oklahoma.
• touches more lives and meets a wider range of needs than any other private philanthropy in Oklahoma.
• is available in more areas of the State than any other private philanthropy in Oklahoma.
Long before there were other charities "out there," Masons were helping people, so it is not surprising that we have a commitment to charity. But just as many people "fall through the cracks" in various governmental programs, they can also fall through the cracks in charitable programs. It is hard for state-wide organizations to meet local needs. That is where your Lodge comes in. You can find the local human needs and opportunities and help to meet them. And we want to help you do that.
The Matching Funds Program provides your Lodge the opportunity to help meet the needs of your town and of non-Masons (Community Matching Funds), as well as the needs of members of the Masonic family (Promises Matter Matching Funds).
Thank you for your efforts to make Masonic compassion real in the lives of others.
